Titanium Dioxide Supply – The Key to Vibrant and Durable Products
Titanium dioxide is a versatile and widely used chemical compound that is known for its white color and high refractive index. It is commonly used as a pigment in products such as paints, coatings, plastics, and cosmetics. Titanium dioxide is also used as a UV filter in sunscreen and as a whitening agent in toothpaste.
Lithopone is known for its excellent covering power and brightness, making it an ideal choice for use in paints, coatings, plastics, and rubber. It is also used as a filler in paper, ceramics, and inks. Due to its unique chemical properties, lithopone provides good weather resistance, durability, and lightfastness when used in various applications.
On November 23, 2022, the General Court of the European Union reversed the conclusion that titanium dioxide was carcinogenic and released a statement (1,2):
“First, the Commission made a manifest error in its assessment of the reliability and acceptability of the study on which the classification was based and, second, it infringed the criterion according to which that classification can relate only to a substance that has the intrinsic property to cause cancer.”
As part of our mission at CRIS we base our safety assessments on the currently available scientific evidence and consider many variables (e.g., study quality, journal of publication, etc.), even if it goes against previous conclusions. Evidence-informed decisions making is critical to ensure that the laws and regulations put into place are for the benefit of the population.
The EU General Court maintains that the scientific evidence presented wasn’t the complete picture for the ingredient, “in the present case, the requirement to base the classification of a carcinogenic substance on reliable and acceptable studies was not satisfied.”
